Pros

Good pay and great benefits are about the only thing good about this company.

Cons

If you are single, want to make money and don't mind working long hours, this is the place for you. Be careful not to get hurt though, that will be your end. MYR makes it a point to go with the employee to the doctors office, tells them not to worry about it, tells the doctor how to write up a report, so it does not reflect badly on them or on the OSHA logs. you can check the safety reports and see most employees refuse treatment or medications. Can you say the work intimidation? Then takes forever to pay the bill from the visit. Training is does not exist. They put people in management positions who never have been, and do not know how to manage people, then gives them free reign to do what they want. Politics play a lot in this company, if your are not a "company man" you won't last. This company wants to be your life. This is no balance with work and family, Some employees go months without seeing their families. They say they are big on helping their employees get through anything, but that does not happen either. Bottom line is you have to be single to work with this company and not want any social life, and do what ever they ask, no matter what the cost.

Pros

Coworkers were great and teamwork was real here. Management was too, and promoted growth within the team.

Cons

Work level in the industry wasn't really consistent, the busy periods had us overloaded for the team size.

Pros

They try and make it a better environment by “feeding” staff but are lacking in actual professionalism.

Cons

I initially had a positive experience with this company. The hybrid work environment provided flexibility and showed trust in employees to manage their responsibilities effectively. Unfortunately, that changed when the company moved to a full-time in-office requirement. The decision felt disconnected from the realities of different roles within the organization. Comparing office-based employees to field employees, whose job functions require them to be on-site, does not recognize the differences in how work is performed and how productivity is measured. Over time, I also experienced concerns with leadership and company culture. Communication from management often felt inconsistent, and there were concerns around professionalism, confidentiality, and workplace dynamics. A strong culture requires leaders who model respect, discretion, and accountability. The company has talented employees who care about their work, but leadership decisions and management practices have impacted morale. I hope the organization takes employee feedback seriously and works toward rebuilding trust.
